suddenly can't load Duolingo.com using Firefox on Windows computer

I found this thread, "I cannot open the Duolingo website from my Firefox browser on MAC", here in this forum, which describes the same problemI'm having. That thread was posted about a year ago and is now archived.

For me, the problem is not with MAC but with Windows.

I can reach the login page for duolingo.com using either Firefox or Edge, but after giving my log-in information, the website gets into an endless loading loop when I try to use Firefox. It still loads correctly in Edge and I can use that.

I've been using Duolingo in FF 102.7.0 esr (32-bit) (and all previous esr versions) with no problem until today and I've been using it for years.

I clear the cache every time I close the browser. I cleared it multiple times and rebooted the computer. I tried disabling the ad-blockeer which has never been a problem before. None of these things helped.

Thanks for any thoughts on this.

The infinite loading loop at Duolingo happens on my Firefox/Windows 10 system when "Always use private browsing mode" checkbox is ON (Firefox Settings > Privacy and Security). Make sure you are not in a Private Browsing mode.
